Aged 80-year-old vines tell the story of the essence of the Southern Rhône.

From 80-year-old vines grown in clay-limestone soils covered with round pebbles and gravel, this wine is a blend primarily of Grenache, with Syrah and Cinsault. After fermentation with indigenous yeasts, it is aged for 6 months in conical wooden vats and oak barrels, followed by another 6 months in concrete tanks. Cassis and dark fruit notes are layered with licorice and black pepper, creating a deep and vibrant flavor. It is truly a "vin de garde" capable of aging for 8 to 10 years.

Tasting Comments

Tasting Notes
Deep red with a purplish luster. The aroma is very fresh, with notes of eucalyptus and mint. These aromas are echoed on the palate, intertwined with notes of dried strawberry, forest undergrowth, and licorice. The mouthfeel is velvety smooth, complex, and flavorful. A hint of chocolate lingers on the finish.

Pairing
Roasted duck breast with cacao sauce
Grilled lamb chops with rosemary
Stewed gibier (venison, wild boar, etc.) with berry and spice sauce
